Gemmaspora is a single-species fungal genus of uncertain familial placement in the order Verrucariales.[2] It contains Gemmaspora lecanorae, a lichenicolous (lichen-dwelling) fungus that parasitises the lichen genus Aspicilia . The genus was proposed in 2007 by David Hawksworth and Gökhan Halici to contain the fungus formerly known as Adelococcus lecanorae. This species, originally described by Roger-Guy Werner in 1963,[3] occurs in Syria and Turkey.[4]
